Claydon Seed Drilling

Evolution M-Mounted Direct Drills

The new Claydon Evolution drill range takes direct seeding to the next level. It builds on the company’s 20+ years of experience with this technology, featuring the time-proven leading tine technique, and combines it with new operational functionality.

With nine new models covering working widths of 3m, 4m, 4.5m, 4.8m, 5m and 6m, hopper size has increased to 1,910 litres for seed-only units and a 2,500-litre tank for the 3m 3MF and 4m 4MRF split 50:50 between seed and fertiliser. The larger hoppers reduce downtime and increase output, while second and third hopper options for applying multiple types, varieties and sizes of seed further enhance versatility. Typical daily outputs range from 20ha for the 3m Evolution drill, which requires a tractor of a minimum of 150hp, to 40ha for the 6m version which needs a minimum of 300hp.
